Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha mLAN16E.

The mLAN16E is an expansion board that features an mLAN interface. mLAN is a digital

network designed for music and is based on the IEEE1394 high performance serial bus

and data communication protocol. mLAN makes it easy to construct sophisticated net-

works for IEEE1394 (FireWire/i.LINK) audio and MIDI signals without having to re-con-

ﬁgure the cabling, as was necessary in older, conventional systems.

The mLAN16E adds two mLAN connectors to an mLAN16E-compatible device, such as

the Yamaha MOTIF ES music production synthesizer.

In order to take full advantage of the mLAN16E’s functionality, please read this manual

carefully. After reading this manual, please keep it available for future reference.

Fundamentals of mLAN

mLAN is a digital network for music that was developed based on IEEE1394, an indus-

try-standard high-performance data communications protocol.

Digital music environments that do not feature mLAN require dozens of cables for vari-

ous devices and purposes, including MIDI cables and audio cables to route MIDI and

audio signals. If you wish to make changes to such systems, you must physically discon-

nect and re-connect these cables.

For example, adding another synthesizer to a system requires two MIDI cables and two

or more cables for audio (for stereo equipment). Making the appropriate connections

may require special knowledge of inputs, outputs, stereo settings, and perhaps connec-

tor impedance.

English

The larger the system, the more complicated and expensive these connections

become, increasing the likelihood of errors and difﬁculties. It takes time and effort to

investigate such errors and their underlying causes. You may have already experienced

the unpleasantness of tracking various cables through a spider’s web of connections.

mLAN simpliﬁes cable connections by using only one type of IEEE1394 cable, thus

enabling you to conﬁgure extremely sophisticated systems. There is no need to re-

patch cables to change routings of MIDI and audio signals between mLAN devices.

System Examples

This section introduces typical system examples that feature the mLAN16E. Refer to

these examples for information on connecting external devices, such as microphones,

musical instruments, and computers.

For information on installing the mLAN16E, refer to the section in the

owner’s manual for your mLAN16E-compatible device on “Installing

Optional Hardware.”

The number of audio channels and MIDI connectors used for data transfer

varies depending on the mLAN16E-compatible device. MOTIF ES can provide

up to 4 Stereo In/16 Mono (8 Stereo) Out audio channels and 4 In/4 Out MIDI

connectors.

Connecting a MOTIF ES to a computer

Use an IEEE1394 cable to connect the IEEE1394 connector on an IEEE1394-compatible

computer to the mLAN connector on an mLAN16E-equipped MOTIF ES. Use the mLAN

Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay (See page 12) software application on the

computer to patch the audio and MIDI signals and to set up the wordclock. Connect-

ing the MOTIF ES to the computer via mLAN enables you to do the following:

• Transfer data of multiple audio channels between the MOTIF ES and the computer

• Simultaneously record in the sequence software (a) your performance on the MOTIF

ES and (b) the performance of the computer sequence software that uses the MOTIF

ES as a MIDI tone generator

• Monitor via the MOTIF ES the audio output from the computer and the audio out-

put from the MOTIF ES

If you select “Normal Voice” or “Plug-in Voice” in Voice mode on the MOTIF

ES, audio signals are output only from OUTPUT L/R.

For more information on the MOTIF ES inputs and outputs and corresponding

mLAN IN/OUT, refer to the “Connections,” “Quick Guide–Computer applica-

tions” and “Audio Input Part (AUDIO IN)” sections of the MOTIF ES Owner’s

Manual.

Use Auto Connector or Graphic Patchbay to change the number of audio

channels that communicate with the computer. To minimize the load on the

computer, do not make mLAN connections in Auto Connector or Graphic

Patchbay using any unused channels.

The number of available input and output channels may vary depending on

the speciﬁc mLAN devices connected. For the best performance, it is

recomended that you connect up to four mLAN devices (including a computer)

in a network. If the network contains an mLAN device that is only compatible

with a low transfer rate (200 Mbps (S200)), the number of devices and chan-

nels available for connection will be reduced.

Wordclocks

In a system that features multiple digitally-connected devices, all digital devices

must be synchronized when digital audio signals are transferred from one device to

another.

Even if the devices use matching sampling frequencies, if their audio processing tim-

ing is not synchronized, they might not receive signals correctly, and audible noise,

glitches or clicks may occur. Synchronization is achieved using a wordclock

(a clock signal that synchronizes all digital audio signals in a system).

In a typical digital audio system, one device operates as the wordclock “master” and

transmits a wordclock signal. The other devices operate as wordclock “slaves,” syn-

chronizing to the wordclock master. To connect the mLAN16E to external devices

via mLAN, in mLAN Auto Connector or mLAN Graphic Patchbay, select a device to

be the master, then set the other devices as slaves. If the mLAN16E is used as a

wordclock slave, it can operate at a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz,

88.2 kHz or 96 kHz. If the mLAN16E is used as the wordclock master, it will operate

at the wordclock used by the mLAN16E-equipped device.

For information on setting the sampling frequency and wordclock, refer to the

Installation Guide, or to the mLAN Graphic Patchbay Online Manual, or the owner’s

manual for your device.

NOTE

English

Making mLAN Connections

In an mLAN system, you can easily conﬁgure and maintain the system, connect or dis-

connect the mLAN connectors on the computer and each mLAN device (virtual audio /

MIDI input and output connectors), and make various mLAN connection settings (such

as synchronization) by using the mLAN Graphic Patchbay and mLAN Auto Connector

software applications. There is no need to re-patch audio and MIDI cables to accom-

modate various music production environments.

mLAN Auto Connectors

This software application enables you to

connect a computer to a single mLAN

device.

It enables you to easily select wordclock and

audio input and output channels.

For information on installing and using the

software, refer to the separate Installation

Guide.

You can also use mLAN Graphic

Patchbay to connect a computer

to a single mLAN device.

mLAN Graphic Patchbay

This graphic software application enables

you to manage mLAN connection settings

for the connected computer and multiple

mLAN devices. You can immediately grasp

connections in their entirety by viewing dis-

played mLAN system conﬁguration graph-

ics. You can also intuitively modify

wordclock settings and audio and MIDI sig-

nal routing, much as if you were connecting

physical cables.

For information on installing and using the

software, refer to the separate Installation

Guide and the mLAN Graphic Patchbay

Online Manual.

Saving mLAN connection settings to the corresponding mLAN device

When you make mLAN connections on the computer, the connection settings will be automati-

cally saved in the corresponding mLAN devices. Therefore, if you used mLAN Graphic Patch-

bay to conﬁgure a network that excludes a computer, the next time you use the network, you

will be able to activate the network just by turning on the power to the network’s mLAN devices

(without starting the computer).

digitales Netzwerk für Musik und basiert auf dem seriellen IEEE-1394-Hochleistungsbus und

dem IEEE-1394-Datenkommunikationsprotokoll. Mit mLAN können Sie sehr einfach

anspruchsvolle Netzwerke für Audio-und MIDI-Signale aufbauen und verwalten, ohne wie

bei alten, herkömmlichen Systemen immer wieder einzelne Kabelverbindungen herstellen

oder lösen zu müssen.

Durch die mLAN16E erhält ein mLAN16E-kompatibles Gerät wie z.B. der

Musikproduktions-Synthesizer MOTIF ES von Yamaha zwei zusätzliche Anschlussbuchsen.

Um alle Vorteile der Funktionen der mLAN16E nutzen zu können, lesen Sie diese Anleitung

bitte genau durch. Bewahren Sie die Anleitung zum späteren Nachschlagen bitte gut auf.

Leistungsmerkmale

■

Schnelle Datenübertragung über mLAN

mLAN ist ein digitales, für Musik konzipiertes Netzwerk. Es verwendet den seriellen

IEEE-1394-Hochleistungsbus und ermöglicht den Aufbau von Systemen, die noch

komplexer und dabei einfacher zu handhaben sind als je zuvor. Die mLAN16E kann mit

einer Geschwindigkeit von bis zu 400Mbps (S400) Daten übertragen.

■

Intuitiver Aufbau und intuitive Verwaltung von mLAN-

Verbindungen über GUI (englisch: Graphic User Interface –

graﬁsche Benutzeroberﬂäche)

Mithilfe der Software mLAN Graphic Patchbay können Sie über die graﬁsche

Benutzeroberﬂäche eines Computers Verbindungen zwischen mLAN-Geräten

herstellen. Auch die Signalführung und Synchronisation von Audio-/MIDI-Signalen

zwischen den mLAN-Geräten wird vereinfacht.

■

Bis zu 16 Audio-Eingangs- und Audio-Ausgangskanäle sowie

sechs MIDI-Eingangs- und MIDI-Ausgangsbuchsen

Der Anschluss von Geräten mit mLAN16E-Erweiterungskarte ermöglicht die

Datenübertragung von bis zu 16 Audio-Ein- und Ausgangskanälen sowie 8 MIDI-Ein-

und Ausgangsbuchsen.

Wie viele Audio- und MIDI-Buchsen für die Datenübertragung verwendet

werden, variiert je nach mLAN16E-Gerät. Der MOTIF ES bietet bis zu 4

Stereo-Eingangskanäle / 16 Mono-Ausgangskanäle (8 Stereo-

Ausgangskanäle) für Audiodaten sowie jeweils 4 Buchsen für die Ein- und

Ausgabe von MIDI-Daten.

■

Zusätzliche Optionen für die Wordclock-Einstellung

Sie können die Frequenz für den Sampling-Betrieb eines mLAN16E-kompatiblen Geräts

mit begrenzter Anzahl von Sampling-Frequenzen zum Wordclock-Master (Haupt-

Taktgeber) machen. Alternativ können Sie sie zum untergeordneten „Wordclock-Slave“

machen, der mit 44,1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88,2 kHz oder 96 kHz läuft.

Yamaha kann nicht für solche Schäden verantwortlich gemacht werden, die

durch falsche Verwendung des Geräts oder durch Veränderungen am Gerät

hervorgerufen wurden, oder wenn Daten verloren gehen oder zerstört werden.

Grundmerkmale von mLAN

mLAN ist ein digitales Netzwerk für Musik, die auf der Basis von IEEE 1394 aufgebaut

wurde, einem Industriestandard-Protokoll für Hochgeschwindigkeits-

Datenübertragung.

Digital-Music-Umgebungen ohne mLAN erfordern Dutzende von Kabeln für

verschiedene Geräte und Zwecke, einschließlich MIDI-Kabeln und Audio-Kabeln für das

Routing von MIDI- und Audiosignalen. Wenn Sie in solchen Systemen etwas ändern

möchten, müssen Sie diese Kabel physisch herausziehen und anders anschließen.

Zum Beispiel erfordert die Erweiterung eines Systems um einen Synthesizer zwei MIDI-

Kabel und zwei oder mehr Kabel für die Audiosignale (für Stereogeräte). Das Herstellen

der richtigen Verbindungen erfordert möglicherweise Spezialkenntnisse bezüglich der

Eingänge, Ausgänge, Stereoeinstellungen sowie u.U. der Anschlusswiderstände.
